Latenode

Instantly notify WhatsApp contacts of new Freshdesk tickets

This template watches Freshdesk for new tickets, shapes a short alert in JavaScript from ticket id, subject, and requester, and sends it with WhatsApp Business Cloud.

Connect Freshdesk and WhatsApp Business Cloud. Put the Freshdesk API key on the Freshdesk connection. Put the Cloud API token on the WhatsApp Business Cloud connection. Use an approved template when Meta requires one.

How Latenode estimates time and cost

Latenode bills workflow runtime in CPU seconds. The first 10,000 CPU seconds are free each month, then usage follows pay-as-you-go CPU-second pricing. Plug-and-Play (PnP) AI nodes are billed separately—each PnP token is $1 USD, charged pay-as-you-go at vendor cost plus a small processing fee, with no API keys required.
